Coupon codes

Coupon codes are used along with existing coupons in Chargebee. You can create a coupon set using a bunch of coupon codes and this coupon set will be associated with an existing coupon. A coupon code can only be applied to a single subscription and cannot be re-used.

Using coupon codes you can distribute several unique codes for a single main coupon, when you are running promotions.
